Thanks to you, we’ve been able to achieve a lot for animals in 2018. This included persuading Natural Resources Wales to ban pheasant shooting on its land; securing the cancellation of multiple reindeer events; and intervening to stop animals from being culled. None of this would have been possible without the help of our incredible supporters, so we are extremely grateful to everyone who has taken action, donated and bought goods in our cruelty-free shop.
Below is a brief roundup of our work this year.
The graphic above had to be prepared a little in advance. Even since then, more developments have taken place. For example, more than 30 organisations have now taken the decision to cancel live reindeer events. While it has been an excellent year, there is still so much work to be done.
With your help, we can achieve even more for animals in 2019. Why not get involved straight away by visiting our Take Action page?
